The Benefits

Quality downpipes

Classical rainwater downpipes (circular) are produced using the latest pipe manufacturing technology - centrifugally spinning the pipe ensuring consistent section dimensions, unlike that of pipes produced by the traditional sand cast method, which is prone to produce pipe with 'thick' and 'thin' spots making the pipe inherently weaker.

Spigot pipes/loose socket option

To increase the flexibility of installing the Classical circular downpipes, plain ended pipe barrels (1750mm length) are available to use with the new rainwater socket. This will allow the installer to utilise more effectively, pipe offcuts and save cost on reduced wastage. This option also provides the installer the flexibility to work bottom up or vice versa.

Cast iron spacer plates
